The
diversity of people is as much a gift of God as any other treasure He offers.
While differences engender many difficulties, they also provide ample
opportunity to learn the many angles of love. Like a diamond turned in light, every
person reveals another facet of God’s imprint upon each of us. Even those
wholly unaware of His Person and Presence become a necessary part of
discovering the breadth and depth of God’s love. Lover of My Soul, I praise
Your for the beauty of Your image upon all Your creation. As I travel among
those who bare Your image, teach me more of Your love as I give and receive it
today.
A serious pursuit of godliness requires an equally serious renunciation of worldliness. Too often, we measure spirituality with false scales. While being wisely selective with our public vices we are less so with our private attitudes and perspectives. In reality, it is the thoughts and intents of the heart where the greatest battles must be waged; our actions will ultimately align with the condition of our hearts. Lord God, You know me inside out, You are not fooled by human facades. Plow my heart with Your Word and Spirit and leave nothing unturned. Refresh my inward man that I may outwardly glorify You in all places at all times.
